Chapter 269

Chapter 269

Outside the passageway.

The Supreme Immortal Kings, including the Chaos Immortal King, were all stunned.

They initially thought that after Martial Ancestor defeated the first-layer opponent with one move, he would need to struggle and collide with the opponents in the subsequent layers.

But to their surprise, for Martial Ancestor, the first-layer opponent was just the beginning.

All the opponents in the second and third layers were also defeated with a single blow.

How could this be possible?

Could it be that all the opponents in the first, second, and third layers had the same strength? A little thought from the many Immortal Kings made it clear that this was impossible.

The only possibility was that Martial Ancestor was too powerful.

For example, the Chaos Immortal King, a Supreme Immortal King, would defeat an ordinary Tribulation Immortal King, whether at the beginning or peak, with a single move.

"My heavens, that's the Dragon Ancestor, the progenitor of the True Dragons in the Spirit Realm, born at the opening of the Spirit Realm and disappeared countless ages ago."

A Supreme Immortal King saw that Martial Ancestor's seventh-layer opponent was a million-foot-long True Dragon, with golden dragon horns exuding a noble aura.

The Dragon Ancestor was the progenitor of all True Dragons in the Spirit Realm. It is said that the Dragon Ancestor intentionally integrated his bloodline into all living beings.

Even though the Dragon Ancestor had disappeared countless millennia ago, the True Dragon bloodline still circulated.

In the Three Thousand Dao States, the Nine Rivers Region is a 'Dragon Rising Land,' where a Tribulation Stage Dragon King was born.

Of course, that Dragon King couldn't compare to the Dragon Ancestor. The former would be suppressed by the natural bloodline gap without needing to make a move when facing the latter.

The Dragon Ancestor was too famous, with his bloodline still circulating in the Spirit Realm and not vanishing into history, so the Supreme Immortal Kings recognized him at a glance.

In fact, the Dragon Ancestor's strength was terrifying, located at the entrance of the ninth heaven's seventh layer.

This means that, according to the Spirit Realm's judgment, the Dragon Ancestor is the fourth strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation.

However, in front of Lin Yuan, the Dragon Ancestor, considered invincible by many Supreme Immortal Kings, was defeated with a single punch, shattering his dragon body with the residual power.

The many Immortal Kings remained silent.

The Chaos Immortal King was dazed.

"That's the Phoenix Ancestor. I didn't expect the Phoenix Ancestor to be stronger than the Dragon Ancestor, being in the third layer."

When Lin Yuan entered the eighth layer, the Supreme Immortal Kings once again perked up, looking at the opponent of this layer and began to discuss.

The Phoenix Ancestor, like the Dragon Ancestor, was a powerful being born at the beginning of the Spirit Realm and also integrated her bloodline into all living beings.

In many places within the Three Thousand Dao States, there are numerous Phoenix nests, nurturing many beings with the Phoenix bloodline.

Although the Phoenix Ancestor sparked much discussion among the Supreme Immortal Kings, thinking of the Dragon Ancestor's earlier fate, everyone sighed inwardly.

As expected.

Facing the awe-inspiring Phoenix Ancestor, Lin Yuan once again delivered a single punch, tearing apart the Phoenix body and entering the ninth layer.

Soon.

He entered the tenth layer.

Until this layer, all the Supreme Immortal Kings, including the self-doubting Chaos Immortal King, were suddenly shocked.

The tenth layer.

It was the final layer leading to the ninth heaven's passage.

It was also the layer containing the life imprint of the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation.

To pass this layer, one must defeat the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation.

How difficult could this be? This isn't the strongest being of an era, nor the strongest being of a generation.

It is the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation. It can be inferred that the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation would be vastly superior to the second and third strongest beings.

"I wonder what the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation looks like?"

The many Supreme Immortal Kings closely watched the tenth layer while conversing.

"Is it a human?"

"It shouldn't be. Look at the seventh, eighth, and ninth layers. Those beings aren't human. Compared to the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors, humans have no advantage."

The Supreme Immortal Kings voiced their opinions.

If it weren't for the passage of eras and the disappearance of those powerful bloodline progenitors, the recent eras' rulers wouldn't necessarily be human Immortal Kings.

"Probably a powerful being born at the beginning of the world, like the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors."

An Immortal King spoke, prompting others to nod in agreement.

As the Supreme Immortal Kings conversed.

From the tenth layer's entrance passage, a figure emerged from the depths of the clouds and mist.

This figure was humanoid, with fluttering sleeves, exuding a terrifying aura that covered the Three Thousand Dao States.

"Martial Ancestor. Is this Martial Ancestor?"

"The life imprint of the tenth layer is actually Martial Ancestor?"

Once used, everything about himself, including his body, qi, blood, soul, and mind, will be enhanced tenfold.

Of course, it can only last for ten breaths, after which Lin Yuan will experience a period of weakness.

Since awakening this divine power, Lin Yuan has never tried it because there was no need; no opponent he encountered ever forced him to use this divine power.

Due to the side effects of the divine power 'Enhancement,' it can only be used as a last resort.

"What if the opponent also replicates the divine power 'Enhancement'?" Lin Yuan looked at the opponent 'Martial Ancestor.'

Then he suddenly exploded, sacrificing his left arm to destroy the opponent's right arm.

Swoosh. The physical divine power 'Blood Rebirth' operated automatically, and Lin Yuan's left arm quickly recovered.

Lin Yuan looked at the opponent 'Martial Ancestor' and found that the opponent's right arm was also rapidly recovering.

"Blood Rebirth is also replicated. Presumably, 'Enhancement' is also replicated." Lin Yuan immediately understood.

He realized that if he used the divine power 'Enhancement,' the opponent would likely use the 'Enhancement' divine power as well.

Although this divine power has the effect of tenfold enhancement, if both sides enhance, it's equivalent to no enhancement.

At the eighth heaven, at the entrance to the ninth heaven.

Although the battle's aftermath between the two 'Martial Ancestor' spread to the eighth heaven, the Supreme Immortal Kings on the scene joined forces to resist, still managing to hold on, unwilling to give up watching the tenth layer's battle.

The battle of the strongest being since the Spirit Realm's creation might never have another chance after today. The Supreme Immortal Kings were determined to watch, even at the cost of their physical bodies.

"Lord Martial Ancestor isn't at a disadvantage, but he hasn't gained an advantage either. If this drags on, the battle will be a stalemate."

The Chaos Immortal King whispered. Although the battle level between the two Martial Ancestor was too high, he could still judge the basic advantage and disadvantage.

"There are always stronger beings, higher heavens, but this ninth heaven can't be reached. Even the strongest being in history, Martial Ancestor, struggles so much. Who else can reach it?"

A Supreme Immortal King spoke with a tone of disappointment, feeling that the pursuit of the ninth heaven was a mere illusion.

"There are always stronger beings, higher heavens." The Chaos Immortal King remained silent.

This saying had existed for an unknown period, even extending to another meaning in the Three Thousand Dao States.

That is, beyond the strong, there are stronger ones. Even Supreme Immortal Kings aren't invincible.

At this moment, this saying seemed appropriate. Even the strongest being in history, Martial Ancestor, was blocked on the tenth layer.

Even if Martial Ancestor passed the tenth layer and entered the ninth heaven, he might encounter even stronger opponents.

The tenth layer.

Lin Yuan continued to battle the opponent 'Martial Ancestor.'

"The only way to defeat the opponent is to use methods he can't replicate," Lin Yuan thought calmly, his eyes brightening.

"Unreplicable..."

Lin Yuan looked at the opponent 'Martial Ancestor,' "You have everything of mine, but can you possess my Insight?"

Lin Yuan's unrivaled Insight came from the Gate of Myriad Realms, a power beyond the Strongest one. The Spirit Realm couldn't replicate a Strongest one, let alone the Gate of Myriad Realms.

[Your unrivaled Insight allows you to perceive the opponent's weaknesses during the battle]

In an instant, numerous flaws in the opponent 'Martial Ancestor' appeared in Lin Yuan's vision.

"Primordial force."

Lin Yuan activated the world force, merging it with the primordial force that surpasses higher creation forces, delivering a terrifying blow that instantly penetrated the opponent 'Martial Ancestor.'

The battle ended.

The opponent 'Martial Ancestor' stood there, dazed.

His internal world began to collapse, disintegrating into powder under Lin Yuan's strike.

Swish.

The tenth-layer opponent disappeared.

Lin Yuan stepped forward, disappearing from the tenth layer.

The ninth heaven.

The clouds rolled.

Boundless.

Lin Yuan stood alone on the mountain peak.

"They say there are higher heavens, stronger beings, but in the ninth heaven, where are the people?"

Lin Yuan looked around, seeing all beings beneath him, standing alone on the peak, looking down from above, as if only he existed in the vast world.

"I'm alone"
